Epilogue:

It's a bright, warm, sunny day in Driftveil City today. A month has passed since Ghetsis's arrest, and now, Unova is finally enjoying the warmth of the sun over the chilling threat Team Plasma posed all those months ago. While everyone's enjoying themselves, including my team, who's well deserving of a break, I'm stuck in the pokemon center with a bunch of paperwork. "Jamie, this after-action report must be done by next week. How much progress have you made?" Vineguard asks urgently.

I tiredly nod in response, "Yeah… It's almost done."

"And how much progress is 'almost'?" Vine presses, slightly annoyed by my vague answer.

"Well… Around 60%, give or take," I reply carefreely.

Vine sighs and advises, "I strongly encourage you to pick up the pace if we're going to have time for revisions and edits," He then hops out, leaving me to my mountain of paperwork.

So. After this crazy adventure, I assume that anyone listening in will have some burning questions about what the hell happened. I apologize for not catching all the details, but in my defense, it's pretty hard to recall everything if you're losing sleep due to night ops and the constant dread of Unova being reduced to a frozen tomb. It may sound fine and dandy behind a wall of words, but it's very different when you're living through it in person. So, without further ado, let me answer your possible questions.

What's an after-action report?

In simple terms, it's just a report describing the who, what, where, when, why, and how of any operation. In my case, Operation Kingslayer was a success, and I need to list the details and events that led up to this great success. For example, some details to note are the initial arrival, meeting with Professor Juniper, recruiting Ivy, Galvin, and Hydra into our ranks, killing Zinzolin, capturing Professor Colress, defeating the Shadow Triad, and arresting Ghetsis while learning that he captured Hydra's brother.

What happened to Nate, the guy I mentioned in the prologue?

Back in the Giant Chasm, Blaze and Vineguard managed to find him. Unfortunately… He was frozen to death. We were far too late to have a chance at saving him. The cause is most likely Kyurem. Although we're victorious in our mission, there are some heavy prices that we're forced to pay, and Nate's life is one of them. At least he went out, standing up for what's right.

Who was Andrew, and why was he such an asshole?

Yeah… that brat was nothing more than a prick to deal with at face value, but his backstory was quite the emotional rollercoaster. Turns out that a bad combination of bullying and high expectations from his parents led him down this path. I can relate, considering that I'll admit that I did get my fair share of harassment in school and at home, but that's a new can of worms I'm not ready to talk about. Obviously not the most original or compelling reason, but I'll admit that I'm a little spooked about how normalized this treatment on younger minds is for me to be this numb. As for his treatment of his emboar, they surprisingly share some things in common. Andrew wants to prove to the world that he has the strength within him, and Ivy mentions to me that Emboar also wants to expand his strength. I'll let Andrew slide, but I'd rather not be in the same room as him, and the rest of my team would strongly agree.

What's with the talking pokemon phenomenon popping up in Unova?

I mean… It's hard not to keep the discovery of talking pokemon in Johto a secret, considering how much of a breakthrough Team Rocket made. Not surprisingly, every research and science organization wanted a piece of the pie, and how the news spread could easily be a story on its own, so I'll save it for another time. Anyway, my best guess is that Team Plasma possibly stole the research from some organizations or sent some operatives to Johto to gather the research from the source directly. Also, speaking of stealing…

The robberies that I investigated before meeting Hydra? What do those have to do with Team Plasma?

Every organization needs funding to operate. Before the battle at Driftveil City, I participated in raids against Team Plasma outposts and hideouts to gather any useful intel. At first, I only learned about the robberies and pokemon poaching linked with Team Plasma. However, after learning the sheer size and complexity of the Plasma Frigate, it's not a stretch to say that Team Plasma needs more funds for maintenance. Plus, I didn't get to mention it, but I received transcripts on questioning Professor Colress. He mentioned researching the talking pokemon phenomenon and a project to build a second Plasma Frigate. Now that was a nightmare I barely avoided and didn't need to know existed.

Is Clay still mad at me for destroying his apartment building?

Okay, there's a slightly funny story to this. A couple of days after capturing Ghetsis, I was called to the police precinct in Castelia City, where I was awarded 1 million poke dollars. I was forever thankful for the large sum of cash until they explained that they initially wanted to gift me 5 million, but due to me being responsible for collateral damage, some of the money went towards repairing the apartment. Slightly disappointing, but I should be grateful that I didn't suffer any legal or civil repercussions for that stunt I pulled. After all, it was a goddamn emergency back then. What else could I do? Back on topic, I believe that Clay's words best answer the question: "You and yer pokemon did well stoppin' Team Plasma, so I'll do ya a favor and let yer ass off the hook. BUT… Try this shit again… and there'll be hell to pay!" Hehehehehe… typical Clay… No hard feelings. I understand.

Anything I learned from capturing Colress?

As I mentioned earlier, Professor Colress was planning on building a second Plasma Frigate and researching the talking pokemon. Other than that, nothing too significant. However, there's one interesting thing I picked up. Colress didn't sound like a bad guy at all. His only interests are to study pokemon strength, and his current project was on Kyreum, one of the strongest ice types in existence. If anything, based on the evidence and intel we obtained, Colress was merely guilty by association. Of course, he needs to answer for his crimes of freezing several innocents to death and burying cities under thick layers of ice. I'm sure that the Unovian police and bureaucrats will come up with something. I'm also hoping that after that fiasco, Colress can continue life as a relatively successful researcher.

So… What was I thinking when my interrogation with the Shadow Triad turned bloody? Have I lost my sanity or humanity? Am I a fucking psycho or something worse?

Well… Uh… Um… Okay, fine. I'll admit it. What I did back there was completely barbaric and not heroic at all. I suppose that one stunt might make me almost on par with Ghetsis or any villain out there. Allow me to make a formal apology, then. While I still stand that I wouldn't have gotten any useful intel using other methods, I'm willing to accept responsibility for my actions. I must also add that I didn't reach this resolution alone. I had a long lecture from Sky, of all individuals, about morality and "doing the right thing."

A few days ago:

"I don't understand, Jamie. You were never like this. What has gotten into you that time?" Sky presses on, feeling various emotions ranging from fear, anger, disbelief, and betrayal.

"I- I guess I went a little too far that time, but you know I have my reasons, right?" I attempt to reason with her, but Sky is not accepting my answer.

"A little? JAMIE! You allowed Hydra to brutally kill an unarmed human! How is that "a little" too far?!" Sky shrieks in anger before asking, "Didn't you remember what Drayden told you?"

"Drayden?" I mirror, confused.

"Yes. You can't take back everything that bad things have taken from you. You have to move on and enjoy the good parts of life. Otherwise, your heart will remain hateful and restless," Sky explains, "I'm not sure if this is true, but I'm afraid to admit that you may have picked up on Hydra's violent ways, and you're slowly becoming as violent as him. The kind-hearted trainer I met as a dratini was nothing like you right now."

"I- Uh… Well…" I attempt to refute before somberly agreeing and replying, "Yeah… You may have a point there."

With a hopeful smile, Sky offers her tail and suggests, "If you agree with me, then please promise me this: We will leave all the bad parts behind and leave space in our hearts for the good parts to fill up. We will also help Hydra do the same as us and continue to strive to do what's right, no matter what happens to us. I know there's still some good in you, but I can't have you lose it in exchange for all the twisted emotions Hydra has stored up."

"One more question," I nervously pose, "Do you also believe there's still some good in Hydra? He… doesn't exactly possess traits that would be considered 'good'."

Sky smiles brightly and replies, "Of course. After all, if Hydra really is a bad guy, he wouldn't have helped us stop Team Plasma and saving the whole region. Plus, he cares a lot about his brother, which is a good trait."

With an equally hopeful nod, I shake my hand with Sky's tail and answer, "Ok, Sky. I promise."

Present day:

Heh… You somehow see the good in everyone, Sky… I'll never understand how, but I respect that. I also gotta thank you, Sky. I probably would have lived long enough to become a villain if it weren't for you.

What will you and your new team members do now?

I honestly don't know. My old team and I will probably return to Kanto to report to Professor Oak and possibly get sent on another mission. As for the new guys, while they certainly are tough enough to hold their own, I'm not 100% sure if being on my team is the best for them or their ultimate goal. However, I did receive a message from Professor Juniper about wanting me to return to the lab with Ivy, so maybe I can learn more about my pokemons' motives then.

The next day:

At Professor Juniper's lab:

"Why are we here?" Ivy bluntly asks.

"It's simple. Professor Juniper wanted to see you, and she also said someone special wants to see you as well. However, I'm not sure who this mystery guest is," I casually reply.

"Well… This better be worth my time…" Ivy huffs.

We enter the lab and I greet Professor Juniper.

"Hello again. It's such a relief to see you safe and sound. I couldn't be more thankful for your contributions to stop Team Plasma," Juniper greets, "Oh, and before I forget, I believe you two haven't officially got to know each other yet." She leads Andrew and his emboar into the main room with Ivy and me, much to our slight discomfort.

"Heya… Look, I don't expect you two to forgive me, but… I just wanted to thank you for saving my partner, and I'm sorry for how I treated you earlier," Andrew apologizes. Emboar then nods and grunts in approval.

"Hmph… You're still a brat in my books, but if Emboar says you're alright, then I'll let it slide," Ivy replies, "Speaking of which, how have you been, Emboar?" Emboar and Ivy then get into a deep conversation about how each other has been doing. Unfortunately, I can only understand Ivy's lines since she's the only pokemon in the room who can talk. Sometime in the conversation, Ivy explains, "Yes, I'm still working on becoming a grass dragon, and I'll keep working towards that dream with my trainer by my side."

"Interesting," Juniper comments, "Looks like your serperior wanted to learn advanced dragon moves ever since she was a little snivy. Perhaps that's why she wasn't interested in the beginner trainers we had."

"Yup. She told me that back when we had a heart-to-heart conversation," I reply, "Anyways, what was it that you called me here for?"

"Oh, I simply wanted to know why snivy chose you of all trainers back then," Juniper explains, "Back when I heard the news about talking pokemon popping up in Unova, I was hoping that maybe your now talking serperior could answer my burning question."

"You got that right, Professor," Ivy confirms after finishing up her conversation with Emboar, "At the moment, Jamie is the only trainer I'm willing to travel with, and no one can say otherwise." With a smirk, she adds, "That includes you, Jamie."

"Guess that means we're gonna keep adventuring together then?" I excitedly ask.

Ivy snorts and replies with a smile, "Sky's right… You can be pretty stupid sometimes. Of course, I want to keep adventuring with you, silly." Ivy then leans her head on my shoulder for extra emphasis. I gently wrap my arm around her upper body to return her affection.

"Welp, glad to see you're still on the team," I joyfully reply before turning to Professor Juniper, "I'm sorry to cut this meeting short, but there are places I must be at currently."

"I see. Then don't let me slow you down." Juniper understandably replies.

"Can't have at least one battle?" Andrew offers with a ball clenched in his palms. I shake my head and wave both of them goodbye.

"So, where now?" Ivy asks.

"Follow me, and you'll see." I cryptically answer as I lead Ivy farther along the route away from the lab and over to a blank patch of grass. I pull out two of my pokeballs and release Galvin and Hydra.

"Guys, we're having one last meeting here," I announce.

"Fuck, man. Why are we doing this shit again?" Hydra groans.

"I have one simple question I want to ask you all. That's it," I reply.

"And what's that?" Galvin curiously asks.

I then look at my three newest team members and announce, "All three of you did an excellent job taking down Team Plasma. And that final battle against Ghetsis was beyond amazing. Ivy, you fought fiercely against Ghetsis's pokemon, even against that massive sludge wave. Galvin, that sniper support you provided was a massive force multiplier for everyone on the team. Hydra, if it weren't for you bravely fighting your brother, I doubt we'll live to tell the tale, let alone free him from Ghetsis's clutches.

"No shit, dumbass! Of course, I'll kick anyone's ass that gets in my way!" Hydra savagely boasts.

"So what's your question then?" Galvin asks.

"Now that Team Plasma is done for, what will you all do now? Or, more specifically, would you all be interested in adventuring with me for longer?" I propose, feeling slightly nervous.

"That's kinda hard to answer…" Galvin equally nervously replies, "Um, may I say some things?" I nod and allow him to continue. He explains, "Well… At first, I just wanted to leave my cave and see the world. I'll admit that the world is big and scary, but it doesn't feel so bad when I have you all with me. And… Seeing how many people you saved from Team Plasma got me thinking…"

"Will you spit that shit out already?!" Hydra impatiently demands. I then hold my hand up to halt him.

"Um… Jamie… I want… I want to… Um… No… I can't mess this up." Galvin mutters before confidently declaring, "Jamie. Wherever you're going, I want to be there as well! You're a hero in my eyes, and every hero needs a good sidekick! Please accept me on your team! I'll do my best!"

"Say no more, Galvin. I was hoping you'd say that," I reply in relief, "Welcome to the team, once and for all. How about you, Hydra?"

After a short silence, Hydra quietly answers, "Hmph… You know the reason why I teamed up with you is so I can lay waste to Team Plasma and rescue my brother, right?" I nod, allowing him to continue. "Well… Fuck… I don't know what to do now… All this time, I just wanted to fucking get revenge for what those sons of bitches did to my brother, but now… I've got nothing… No plans… No dreams… No future…"

"Well, Drayden did say that you got to let go of the pain that Team Plasma inflicted on you. Otherwise, you'll never find happiness in life. I know it sounds cheesy, but that's the truth." I explain, "I can help you… Sky could help you… We all could help you if you allow us to."

Hydra sighs and shakes his head. "You want to help me… Then do me one favor…" Hydra quietly announces while clenching his right head, "Let me see my brother once more. He's always there whenever I don't know shit."

"Sounds good then. Let's head to the Giant Chasm, where your brother and Ghetsis's other pokemon chose to take residence," I reply in agreement while I take out Chomper's pokeball and say, "Come on out, Cho-"

Hydra suddenly clenches his jaw on my hand, preventing me from letting me release Chomper. "Allow me. I'll fly us there," Hydra offers. Although surprised, I smile and nod in approval.

An hour later:

I'll need quite a bit of time to get used to how slow and less talkative Hydra flies compared to Chomper, but we do eventually arrive at the center of the Giant Chasm and locate the second cave entrance to the deeper caverns. "Well, here we are," I mindlessly comment, "Now, let's go look for-"

"Hold it, dumbass," Hydra snaps, "Someone's watching us…" I look back at Hydra dumbfounded as he scans the cave entrance. Then, Hydra charges up a flash cannon and blasts a rock close to the entrance.

"Jesus Christ, Hydra… What was that all about?" I sputter in confusion. However, I got my answer when a floating sarcophagus materializes itself in front of us. "Well, well, well… It was smart of my brother to leave the place guarded, but he chose you, of all pokemon, 'Fagrigus? That's really disappointing…" Hydra taunts.

"I understand that Cofagirgus has a "certain" word in its name, but did you have to emphasize "that" word?" I question.

Suddenly, Sky's pokeball opens up, and once out, she says, "I agree, Hydra. Did you have to use that offensive word?"

"Fuck yeah," Hydra savagely replies, "It's fucking hilarious."

"Hehehehehe… My, my, Little Bro… That was low, even for your standards," A deep voice echoes from the cave. A familiar dark creature emerges from the cave, which reveals itself as a bigger hydreigon, specifically, Hydra's older brother and former pokemon to Ghetsis. Behind him are more former pokemon of Ghetsis, namely, Toxicroak, Drapion, Eelectross, and Seismitoad. He scans his visitors and then comments, "You gotta listen to your trainer and girlfriend more, Little Bro. It seems one of them has ten times the amount of common sense as you do." Every pokemon behind Hydra's brother laugh along with him.

"What the fuck are you talking about Bro…" Hydra questions before noticing Sky and I and putting two and two together, "She ain't my girlfriend, Brother!"

"You're right, Little Bro. Your face is too ugly for any girl to want you," Hydra's brother quips, which triggers more laughter from the pokemon behind him."

"GRRRRR! DO YOU WANT TO GET YOUR ASS KICKED?!" Hydra angrily roars.

"I wouldn't if I were you, Little Bro. You don't want to embarrass yourself in front of your own trainer, runt," Hydra's brother taunts with a shit-eating grin.

"What. Did. You. Just. CALLED ME?!" Hydra erupts in even more rage while glowing blood red.

"Once a runt… Always a runt…" Hydra's brother further insults, which sends Hydra into a blinding rage.

"That's it. I'M COMING FOR YOU!" Hydra roars as he charges right into his brother, who quickly hovers to the side and circle throws Hydra back to where he started.

"See what I mean?" Hydra's brother teases, "Do you ever use your brain in a fig- ahh!"

While his brother taunts Hydra, he fires a flash cannon straight into his brother's belly. "Got anything else to say, smartass?" Hydra snaps.

"Not bad, Little Bro…" Hydra's brother compliments, "But can you handle this…?" Hydra's brother then flies up into the air at alarming speed and conjures white orbs that materializes into rocks and drops them onto Hydra.

"Easy as shit!" Hydra remarks as he blasts the falling rocks into pieces with quick, precise flash cannon blasts. The raining rocks continue falling down for at least half a minute until Hydra's brother flies a good distance behind Hydra, glows a light blue aura, and tackles him with a dragon rush. Once all the rocks stopped falling, Hydra notices too late and takes the impact at full force, sending him flying.

"Not so easy now, Little Bro. Why don't you think about it under these rocks." Hydra's brother sneers as he buries his younger brother under a large pile of rocks.

"Hydra!" Sky and I scream, mortified by the scene. We rush to the rock pile until Hydra's brother stops us.

"Don't bother," Hydra's brother says, He's as stubborn as a scraggy. He'll get out eventually." While I do want to help my pokemon out, I can't help but agree that Hydra rarely stays down. A few seconds later, red light peeks out from the rocks and the pile explodes, revealing Hydra glowing in blood red.

"H- How did he…?" Sky mutters.

"Must be work up, increasing his strength severely," I quickly answer.

"Ah… That explains it," Hydra's brother comments, "I was curious about what that glow was, and now I get it."

"What you see is more than just your little brother, Brother," Hydra replies, "I'm Hydra… I'm the demon that strikes fear into the hearts of all my opponents. And now… You, brother, have the honor of seeing hell on earth." Hydra then charges three purple energy balls but is interrupted by his brother getting close and using crunch.

"If only you fight as well as you monologue, maybe this fight would have ended in your win," Hydra's brother taunts. Without saying a word, Hydra crunches back and builds distance. To be sure, he fires a couple of flash cannons from his central before charging up two draco meteor orbs from his side heads. Once fully charged, Hydra launches the two powered-up orbs into the air, which explodes and releases smaller purple meteors raining down onto the battlefield.

"Aw hell, run for cover!" I scream while running for dear life with Sky hot on my tail. The other pokemon retreat into the cave as a barrage of meteors decimates and consumes everything nearby in a dust cloud. Once the dust settles, I see scorched land, burned trees, columns of black smoke, and an enraged hydreigon. However, Hydra's brother remains unfound.

Sky and I slowly return to the literal hell on earth for a closer look, but still… Nothing. Suddenly, Sky taps my shoulder and points at a faint blue glow in one of the smoke columns as it gets closer and glows brighter. The light slams into Hydra's back at blistering speed and force, knocking him far away from the point of impact. The blue glow fades to reveal Hydra's brother, albeit tattered from the draco meteor attack. "No way…" I whisper to myself as I run toward Hydra's unconscious body. "Hydra! Please…! Get up…!" I desperately scream but to no avail.

"Jamie… Is he okay?" Sky worriedly asks.

"I don't know…" I hopelessly answer, "I don't know how. Is this really Hydra's first loss? How?"

"First loss?" Hydra's brother asks while sitting down next to us.

"Um, yeah," I breathlessly answer.

"I see…" Hydra's brother ponders, "Well, allow me to tell you what I saw. I've known him ever since we were young deinos, and my brother is still, to this day, bold, arrogant, and very short sighted. Once you get past his intimidation and, admittedly, powerful firepower, all it takes is to poke at his ego until he leaves an opening."

"I could have sworn that draco meteor attack covered every meter in that battlefield. Not even the ground or trees went unscathed," I describe.

"That's the problem," Hydra's brother explains, "When I buried my brother under that rock pile, I knew that it wasn't enough to stop him one bit. Instead, it was a humiliation tactic. I had a feeling that my brother would be pissed, and I was right. What I didn't expect was for him to know draco meteor. Nevertheless, I attempted to stop his attack but failed, and he launched the attack. Fortunately, the meteors were spread out enough that I could fly up while taking minimal damage and hide in the black smoke until my brother left his back exposed."

"But how are you that strong? I don't remember you being that strong when we encountered Ghetsis," I ask, still baffled by the battle.

"I held back my true strength. I didn't want to hurt my brother of all pokemon," Hydra's brother reveals, "Besides, I and the rest of Ghetsis's former pokemon trained very hard for the past month to avoid being captured by another evil human.

"I… see," I comment, unsure what to say. I'm surprised to see how clever Hydra's brother is.

"Ah, finally, Toxicroak. Give our guests here our finest oran berries," Hydra's brother calmly commands. The poison frog walks up to us with a wooden platter with a pile of oran berries, and we take our share. Hydra's brother takes two and downs one in one gulp and taps the other on Hydra's head.

Suddenly, Hydra groans as he regains consciousness. "Wha… What the hell happened?" Hydra mutters as his brother holds a berry in his face.

"Eat up, Little Bro. I think you earned it," Hydra's brother remarks before smugly adding, "And once again, the older brother takes the win."

"God damn it! I was so fucking close," Hydra groans once again before grabbing the berry, eating up, and getting up in a battle pose, "Okay, asshat, you got me by surprise. But don't think your tricks will work on me in ROUND 2!"

"Wait, Hydra!" I shout, "Didn't you say you wanted to see your brother for something?"

"Oh, right…" Hydra recalls.

"I see… So, aside from beating you up like old times, what else can I do for you, my baby brother," Hydra's brother smugly asks.

"Bitch," Hydra snaps before answering, "What I wanted was some advice, I guess."

"About what?" Hydra's brother asks sincerely.

"I've dedicated my whole life to destroying Team Plasma to either get you back or avenge your death. Now that I have the former, I don't know what to do now." Hydra explains while looking down, "It's as if my life is meaningless now…"

Hydra's brother stares wide-eyed and responds, "So let me get this straight. You wasted all this time working on finding me and getting revenge instead of bettering your future?"

"What the hell are you yapping about-" Hydra mutters before his brother cuts him off.

"Will you shut up and listen for once?" Hydra's brother snaps before explaining, "I was ripped away from my free life and forced to work for that tyrant, Ghetsis. I had no dreams, future, or life anymore because I was a slave to the scumbag. You, on the other hand, still have your freedom. You could do literally anything your heart desires, but you decided to enslave yourself to your futile goal of searching for me and destroying Team Plasma in pure vengeance. What are you gaining by throwing away your freedom like that?"

While staring at the dirt, Hydra softly replies, "You mean the world to me, Brother. I would never let any asshole lay a hand on you like that."

"And you mean the world to me, Little Bro," Hydra's brother responds without missing a beat, "I would never let you throw away your life and freedom if I could… Even if that means forgetting about me." Hydra remains silent, still looking down at the dirt. However, I notice a droplet hitting the dirt. Could it be… Is Hydra… crying… His brother eventually notices as well and pats Hydra on the back, "With that being said, you formed an excellent alliance with your trainer and his pokemon. If it weren't for you distracting me, Ghetsis would most likely order me to wipe out your trainer and all of his pokemon, leaving no survivors, as usual for me," Hydra's brother adds before suggesting, "So, if you're done with the waterworks, I have an idea. You two, was my Little Bro great help on your journey?"

"Um, yeah. He's a powerhouse on the team," I answer.

"I'll admit, he was a bit scary when we first met, but deep down, I feel like he has a good heart," Sky also answers.

"Then it's settled," Hydra's brother declares, "Why don't you keep traveling with them, Little Bro? Learn how to master your power and test yourself against great challenges and powerful opponents."

Hydra hesitantly refutes, "But what about you, Brother? Are you going to be safe without me?"

"Oh, please," Hydra's brother brushes off, "If I can mess you up good, I'm sure I can mess anyone up."

I take a deep breath before I march to Hydra's face and offer again, "Well, Hydra? We've kicked some serious ass together, and we can kick some more together. If we can pour out the strength to rescue your brother from the clutches of Team Plasma, I'm sure we can take on any motherfucker out there. I'll gladly welcome you to the team with open arms if interested." I glance at my right arm before nodding and raising my right hand into a fist, ready for a fist bump. The area goes silent as Hydra stares at me and my fist. Next, he stares at his brother, who gives him an approving smile. Then, he stares at Sky, who has a hopeful smile on her face. Lastly, Hydra stares at his clenched right head. Hydra's central head slowly opens as he delivers the final verdict.

"Alright. I'm in," Hydra confirms as he slams his right head into my fist. Sky, Hydra's brother, and the rest of Ghetsis's former pokemon cheer at this great revelation of Hydra officially joining the team.

"Glad to hear," Hydra's brother contently states, "Take good care of my baby brother. He can be an idiot sometimes."

"And fuck you too, Brother," Hydra joyfully replies.

"Alright, team. I wonder where's our next adventure," I comment.

"Maybe a restaurant or something. I'm hungry," Sky suggests while patting her serpentine belly.

"Fine. Let's go already! I can smell that Castelia steak from here!" Hydra enthusiastically declares.
